Research so far...

The research I have done so far is that I have started watching a different types of music videos with various genre such as Nikki Manaj's Anaconda video, Hard out here by Lily Allen as well as I love you papi by Jennifer Lopez. In these music videos there were many similarities such as women wearing tight clothes, the way they act as in doing sexual moves which attracts male attention. In particularly the music video I love you Papi by Jennifer Lopez, she objectifies men but she still wears very revealing clothes which then makes her the center piece of the video even though she is objectifying men. There's also star construction which shows how she controls her image. I have also looked at Andrew Godwin's theory for music videos and created a separated blog for it. I have also found an article on The Daily Telegraph Newspaper which is about how sexualized music videos on teach women to sell out and that women body is there to sell the product, also how the female artists are selling the message that women are nothing more than accessories and only value of sexual objects. My next step is to analyse these music videos as well as other types of music videos with different genres as well as keep finding journals, newspaper articles on women being sexualized in music videos.
